Different tiles give bonuses to different types of structures. well... I think the word "tiles" needs clarification, it could mean "place a city on the grassland tile" or it could mean "this planet has 13 grassland, 5 mountian, 1 volcanic, and 20 ocean tiles, so therefore any city you build on it will support a lot of life, but not so much constructio
for me, its just the lack of customization/ease on eyes although, I have to say replying is a lot easier on this forum xD
You can fly over the poles. The orbital well is a giant sphere. yes, exactly what I wanted to hear
on the *planetary* maps (as in the "maps" around planetary orbit) will SoaSE have a limited 3-D setup (in that the map is like a donut, with the planet in the center. i.e. you cannot fly over the poles of the planet because this is "off the map") or will it be a full 3-D (a complete sphere in which you *can* fly over the poles)? personally I like the second one, but I dont think we've gotten a definate answer yet.
You are correct. I originally said there would be no 3d movement, however, after everyone made good arguements why 3d movement would be cool, we added it. It has been in for several months now. after SotS flunked I wouldnt be surprised if you halted everything just to make 3-D available.
I have the unofficial download that came with this forum account, but I havent officialy registered with stardock. do I have to *really* dish out 70$ just so I can preorder and beta test? or will it just be enough with the edition I have? I look forward to seeing how Stardock and Ironclad blend styles on this game. *cringes slightly* personall
The capital ships are TEC battleships and they don't carry very many fighters but I'm pretty sure there are hangar defense platforms in orbit around the planet just outside right side of the shot. this brings up a small question yeah, we know that fighters are going to be important, but is this game going to be more capital/frig class scewed
*prays*
wow well... if they do pull it off indefinate suspension, then I'm buyin xD
I personally liked the old forum, and have to say that there was nothing to improve upon it although if it was all for the sake of integration... well... maybe IC can teach you a thing about forum setup
awesome screens xD
oh come on, that could *not* have been actuall gameplay it just couldnt.
wraith, for every post I've made, you've had 2 to say I spend all my time spamming... wait... are you some old forumite with a new name... yeah. I figured.
meh, I'm not so much a fan of xpacks as I am of brand new games xpacks expand on an already working engine (which is fine, especially in this case) whereas new games grant the flexability of a new engine
still... at least 15-20 ships per race would be nice. but granting concessions for the scope of the game, I wouldnt be surprised if we only had 10-12, and thats not going to stop me from buying the game in the least.
hey, who knows? the devs seem to like us (granted so long as we are at least a sticks length away from them)
my spamming abilities are vastly overrated here you spammed a lot to alcari =_=
well... if there is a homeworld I just think that it will 1 ) have its own special title and 2 ) start out farther built up than any other planet other than that I really cant see other significance to it, although capturing it might create moral problems in your target.
10 minutes should be plenty to build a sufficient counter-force, so I doubt that will be a huge problem. ...of course this means that you would probably have to make simultaneous attacks on a galaxy in order to establish even one planet...
I sure hope that they dont plan on including only that small amount of ships alcari... however if they do, thats fine I guess... just not as interesting...
spamming is when you post 3 times a day on every thread with a post thats about half a page long of course that usually happens only when I talk about relativistic consequences in games. so dont worry, we exhausted everything about that in the last forum
agreed.
I think Blair fits... its just more suiting oh... and lets not bring any inferiority complexes over from the last forum, eh blackflag?
If you head to the main site and go to the races part, try the ships list. It tells a little bit about some of their abilities speakin' of which... do you think we'll get some more info now that SD has teamed with IC? we've been waiting quite a while now
ah that, means I'm in an arch of overbearing threads, but its far from spamming dont worry, I'll get into spamming mode soon enough
